Cheats in Grand Theft Auto IV: The Ballad of Gay Tony are entered through Luis Lopez's in-game phone. Dial a valid number once and the game stores it in the phone's Cheats menu, where it can be activated again later.
Create a separate save before using cheats. Some codes can disrupt a mission or affect achievement and trophy eligibility during the session. Reload the clean save when you want to return to normal progression.
How to enter a phone cheat
- Load The Ballad of Gay Tony and wait until Luis can use his phone.
- Open the phone, then open its keypad.
- Enter a code exactly as shown.
- Call the number to activate the cheat.
- To repeat it, open the phone and select the saved Cheats menu.

If a cheat does not work
- Confirm that The Ballad of Gay Tony is the episode currently loaded.
- Open the phone keypad and place the call; typing a number elsewhere has no effect.
- Move outdoors into an open area before spawning a vehicle.
- Leave an active mission if it temporarily restricts the phone or vehicle spawning.
- Check every digit. Several codes differ by only one group of numbers.
The APC, Buzzard, Akuma, Vader, Floater, Bullet GT, parachute, explosive punches, and explosive sniper rounds are episode-specific additions. Do not expect those codes to work in Niko's original GTA IV story or in The Lost and Damned.
